I have a nice amount of roof are (12,12 pitch, south facing) on an large addition I am adding to my house. We have installed in slab heating, and I would like to heat some of this water with solar, some time in the future. At this point I just want to rough plumb for this and am not sure what this would look like? Do the two lines (1/2″copper?) go through to roof deck? If so how is this flashed?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks

A House Needs to Breathe...Or Does It?: An Introduction to Building Science
Allison Bailes is great at explaining complex building science topics in simple terms that anyone can understand. If your goal is a new house or remodel that embodies the best practices that building scientists have to offer, buy this book right away.
Angel Guard Deck Demon
Demo has never been easier with the deck demon. The tool keeps the worker in an upright position and uses leverage to remove decking from framing, a must have tool for demo.
Milwaukee 18v Cordless Reciprocating Saw (2720)
This is a great quick-cutting saw with a brushless motor, an LED light, and a handy folding rafter hook.
Foam Gun
We like using a professional foam-dispensing gun as opposed to straw cans because it allows you to easily control bead size and reuse the can.
Great Stuff Foam Cleaner
It’s important to clean and maintain a professional foam-dispensing gun, and this product fits the bill. It has a spray applicator for general cleaning, plus it screws onto the dispensing gun so you can clean the inside.
